Kwiz Eleven Alive

New clue, 1/27, 12:03 AM: The visiting team is a major league team, but the game did not count in the standings.*****************

Kwiz clue, 6:55 PM, 1/20/09: This picture, which appears smaller here, will go much bigger than the other one when zoomed. I think this should help steer people in the right direction:Also, the person who took this picture is gonna get huge credit--I just can't say who it is yet as to not give away the answer. As soon as someone does, the proper credit will be given.******************

Two players hit home runs in the game, both for the Red Sox. One was Jim Rice, who was the other? And who was the starting pitcher for the visiting team?

Dual excitement right now. It's the eve of the end of George Bush's reign of error, and a mini-Tixmas Eve, as the Red Sox presale is tomorrow.

"The visiting team looks like the Montreal Expos. Could this have been an in-season exhibition game, like the one the Sox played against the Mets in 1986 and 1987?

Home run hit by Rich Gedman? Off ex-Sox Bill Lee maybe?"

So Quinn and Tim J both said the Expos and Lee. That is correct! I didn't post either comment till now, so neither of them saw the other's comment, so both will get equal credit for Lee. Tim added 1981, which is also the correct year.

But, there's more to get! All you know for sure now is that it was the Expos and it was 1981. But who homered for the Red Sox in this game besides Jim Rice?

And, yes, that's where I got the pic from. Like I said, I was gonna wait to give the guy credit until the kwiz was over, but I guess it's okay to post that now since that guy doesn't give the exact date. I had to figure that out on my own.
